So I finally have a Blitter on its way from Best. Unfortunately seems like its the only place that stocks them.
Cant wait to Blitter this STF up.

Re: Icky - Progress
Been holding off on the Video Brightness Fix https://www.exxosforum.co.uk/forum/viewt ... =80#p12063 as I had modified the SCART cable by reducing the RGB resistors. Will put them back to their original values and do the fix.
Also the donor ST's keyboard is not working - hasn't been since I got it. Have been using my STE's keyboard and now need to put it back to into the STE to put it back to normal. Seems like there is a short going on in the keyboard when plugging it in the board does not boot.
So two Atari jobs for this weekend to clean up after the mad dash to build the STF

Good luck with the keyboard, I'm hoping to get your spacers printed and then see if I can fix the STF, whilst trying to get my PAK to work.
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Re: Icky - Progress
And for todays Atariness on the STF we have the Video Brightness Fix in place.
Colours are looking a lot better now.
Not the best comparison conditions due to many factors being different between these two pictures but here is the before and after.
